Today we pause to recognize the men and women who answered the call to serve. Their strength, their quiet bravery, and their unwavering commitment built the foundation of the freedoms we rely on each day.

Today, the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps, we honor all who have served and sacrificed for our nation.
I’m especially thinking of my uncle, William Raymond Gendebien, a Marine pilot whose F-4B Phantom II was shot down over Quang Nam in 1965.

Started the day off with some local TV interviews and finished it off with a wonderful house visit with some great friends and neighbors! Another amazing day on the trail.

Today’s a great day! We just brought our final load of soybeans to Bourdeau Brothers. The North Country has some of the best farmers in the world! Let’s support them and elect a dairy farmer to Congress!

Happy Election Day, New York! I was proud to spend the past year traveling across New York’s 21st, helping get out the vote for our local communities. If you haven’t voted yet, make a plan today, and make your voice heard. Let’s win this!

Over the past year, I’ve traveled across all 15 Counties of New York’s 21st District — from Glens Falls to Massena, from Plattsburgh to Rome. — standing beside local candidates who care deeply about our communities. Now it’s your turn to make your voice heard. Democracy only works when we show up.

Tomorrow, thousands of New Yorkers are going to wake up without SNAP benefits. Right now, we need to come together to help our fellow community members in anyway we can. Support your local food banks and contribute your time and resources if you are able.

We need to make sure SNAP is fully funded for New Yorkers. Millions rely on these critical benefits, and they expire in less than 24 hours. We need government working for us again! www.fox5ny.com/news/ny-snap...

First Argentina killed our soybean business, now they have the green light from DC to destroy our beef ranchers. Washington is selling us out and New Yorkers deserve better. It’s why I am running for Congress—enough with D.C. insiders representing us.

Mike Johnson is playing games with the livelihoods of more than 50,000 households in New York’s 21st that rely on SNAP and food assistance to survive. They need to get back to work and start earning their paycheck just like all the hard working people up in the North Country have to do.

Thousands of New Yorkers are on the verge of losing their SNAP benefits. We need to protect the most vulnerable in society, and we need a Congress that is ready to work, instead of staying home. New Yorkers deserve better. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

It was a pleasure spending time at the Peru Democrats meet and greet. Any time I get to speak with friends and neighbors about the issues that matter most to them is a great day. A special thank you to Marque Moffett and her team for all their hard work on a great event.

I’m here in my soybean field. Because of the tariff war this year, American farmers lost their soybean business to Argentina. And what do we do to help US farmers? We send Argentina $20 billion dollars. Why are we saving Argentina’s economy?

The government shutdown is impacting air traffic. Farmers are left behind. Museums are closing. We need real leadership in D.C. right now that will protect healthcare and end this shutdown.

I am grateful to see the return of the remaining hostages in Hamas custody. Today is a day of celebration. Their families will finally get some closure as their loved ones return. Now, let’s come together to work toward a lasting piece, one where the suffering of innocent Palestinians in Gaza ends.

We are 11 days into a government shutdown and right now farmers are struggling.
Meanwhile, Washington is threatening yet another trade war with China.
Enough with the chaos. Let’s elect leaders who will actually work for New York.

Agriculture is the number one industry in the North Country. Right now, it’s getting hit hard during the government shutdown. We cannot wait any longer. While Washington fights each other, we need leaders who will fight for us.

On this day, we remember the victims of the deadliest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Two years later, many hostages are still in Hamas’s hands. We owe it to them to continue fighting for their freedom and to ensure the world never forgets October 7, 2023.

Because of the government shutdown, thousands aren’t being paid and farmers are going bankrupt.
This is wrong—New Yorkers deserve so much better.

With the government shutdown entering its third day, the North Country continues to suffer. Extreme tariffs harm our farm workers, the shutdown has furloughed our federal employees, and soon, many benefits may lapse. It’s time to end the shutdown, end the tariffs, and deliver for New Yorkers.
